Filmmaker warns against dangers of plummeting global birth rate in new documentary

Filmmaker warns against dangers of plummeting global birth rate in new documentary

A filmmaker and data analyst warned that the falling birth rate crisis across the globe couldn’t be “any worse.”

Stephen Shaw, who interviewed people around the world to investigate plummeting birthrates for his documentary Birthgap, recently told podcaster Brendan O’Neill that population collapse is a uniquely dangerous problem. This is because unlike the dangers of, say, nuclear proliferation and environmental issues, there are no known solutions to declining birth rates, according to Shaw.

State Lawmakers Nationwide Erect Firewalls Against Sharia Law

State Lawmakers Nationwide Erect Firewalls Against Sharia Law

A quiet surge is reshaping American courts in states such as Georgia and Missouri to prevent the encroach of Sharia law.

State legislators are advancing “American Laws for American Courts” (ALAC) and related measures. These laws attempt to keep the U.S. and state constitutions as the sole legal authorities. The message to Americans is clear: no foreign codes and no parallel tribunals. This effort addresses real risks in family law, contracts, child custody, arbitration, and other legal conflicts.

Jesse Kline: Carney has sowed division, not created a ‘unity government’

Jesse Kline: Carney has sowed division, not created a ‘unity government’

Prime Minister Mark Carney pulled off of a political coup when his party won three byelections on Monday after enticing five members of the opposition parties to cross the floor, thus turning a minority into a majority government for the first time in Canadian history. But to suggest, as many Liberals are, that he has formed some sort of “unity government” is patently ridiculous.

Sharon Osbourne has said she will be attending an anti-immigration march organised by far-Right commentator Tommy Robinson.

Next month’s ‘Unite The Kingdom’ march follows a similar rally in September at Trafalgar Square, which drew over 100,000 participants.

Robinson has been drumming up support for the march in social media posts and earlier this week shared an Instagram video on the Gauci Reports account galvanising followers to mark May 16 as the date ‘Britain rises and reunites’.

“Stop AfD at Any Cost”: Rule of Law Takes a Back Seat in Germany

“Stop AfD at Any Cost”: Rule of Law Takes a Back Seat in Germany

Germany’s declining establishment parties are again undermining the very institutions they pretend to defend in order to limit the capabilities of the rising Alternative for Germany (AfD).

In Rhineland-Palatinate, in the southwest of the country, where the populist party recently secured a record election result, the CDU/CSU, SPD and Greens are teaming up to alter the constitution. They want to change the rules for parliamentary inquiry committees so as to block the AfD from convening investigative committees of their own.

Does Mark Carney believe in democracy?

Does Mark Carney believe in democracy?

Mark Carney is swaggering about Canada with his new majority government, acting as if he’d just received a landslide mandate from the electorate. The truth is he acquired his precious majority not by climbing up on his soapbox and convincing voters, but by whispering sweet nothings to five MPs from other parties, upon which they mysteriously lost their political principles and crossed the floor. Does Carney believe in democracy? It’s hard to be sure.

Yes, his party did just win three special elections. But only one of those counted (the other two were held by Liberals already and in safe Liberal ridings, so made no difference to the number of seats the party held). Without the floor-crossings, Carney would be stuck with the minority he won last April.

Iran – A Longer View

Iran – A Longer View

The prognosis of the Iran War is now so couched in politics and so warped by the American Left that the public has grown tired and wants it all to go away. But in truth, the situation is so fluid that any accurate prediction is impossible. Yet there is good reason to believe in an eventual outcome quite favorable to the U.S. and one far better than the status quo ante bellum.

The Inimitable Mr. Carney

The Inimitable Mr. Carney

Ottawa boasts of nation-building while debt rises, jobs vanish, and contradictions multiply.

The Liberal Party of Canada is ecstatic. They’ve finally caught the golden ring on the merry-go-round. There were three byelections in Canada on April 13, and the Liberal Party won all three of them, which now gives them a majority government. To be clear, they have been inching their way in this direction for almost a year now, since they won a minority government in the last federal election. They have been doing this by persuading Conservative MPs to cross the floor. The last such crossing was just a few days ago on April 8, when Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu did the treacherous little dance. She was the fourth Conservative MP to do so since the general election. In the Liberal Party press release, she justified her move by calling it an “opportunity … [to] build the nation at speeds never seen before.” That’s a current Liberal talking point, but it don’t mean a thing.

Mamdani’s East Harlem Grocery Store Boondoggle

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has announced the first location for one of the five promised city-owned grocery stores. The 9,000 square-foot store will be built on a city-owned vacant site under the Metro-North railroad viaduct at La Marqueta, near Park Avenue and East 116th Street, in Manhattan’s East Harlem neighborhood.

The city will finance the store’s construction with $30 million from the capital budget. The store will have no debt service. Though privately operated, it will pay no rent or property tax.
